Default RE: Still trying for my first longbeard!! Any Suggestions??

thanks for the replies guys. It has rained something awful every single day since I posted so I did not go back until today. I did make it up to the bench and gobbling has almost tottally stopped other than from the roost. I set up a decoy on the flat and watched a lone hen fly down and ease down the mountian to me (tottally ignoring any calls). She pecked all around me for about 30 min or so. At one point she was within 20 yards and I coulda took her out with a rock. After the heavy rains came back soaking me and my hunting buddy we packed it up by 11am. I REALLY wanna make this the year but the more time that passes the hard it gets!!
